A child attacked by a dog Wednesday is recovering at Children's Hospital in Birmingham.

Cameron Cox, 3, was listed in good condition Friday afternoon, Children's Hospital spokesman Adam Kelly said. Albertville Assistant Police Chief Doug Pollard said the toddler was visiting neighbor Willie Pitt on Park Drive when Pitt's pit bulldog came into the house through an open garage door. The dog immediately attacked the child, biting her several times in the stomach and chest, Pollard said.

The child was taken to Marshall Medical Center South by private vehicle and then transferred to Children's Hospital.
